Default RE: spark plug

take it downto your local shopand have it heli-coiled...its expensive but it keeps from replacing the head. As for popping out, its been happening alot, and the reasons could be numerous...just be glad you didn't lock your engine up like another member did[:'(]

Default RE: spark plug

why are people having so many problems with plugs popping out? I've changed the plugs in my T-bird (Aluminum heads, 4.6) 2 or 3 times and I have not had any problems. Now you people are making me nervous even though I've changed plugs a few times before.
